Mateo hasn’t had much luck in life. Despite being born into a well-off family and surrounded by love, bad luck has followed him.
At ten years old, Mateo suffers a traffic accident that leaves him paraplegic and condemned to use large and strange devices that attract everyone’s gaze and provoke mockery from his schoolmates. This stroke of bad luck forces Mateo to make a decision: to live life to the fullest, not letting adversity paralyze him. Shortly after, Mateo manages to score an impressive goal during recess, momentarily turning him into a hero. At that moment, Mateo realizes he is capable of achieving anything he sets his mind to.
Mateo takes us on a journey through his memories, like when his sister Bárbara almost drowned before his eyes, and despite his cries, he could do nothing to help her. Or when his first love, the first person he was excited about, left one day without saying anything, leaving an emotional void that stayed with him for a while.
In El instante que nos queda, Mateo guides us through his memories, showing us that for every misfortune, there is always a possible solution. The book is a celebration of life that, through a complex character surrounded by adversity, teaches us the tender side of things.
